GLI 4' x 4' Winter Air Pillow, Above Ground Ice Equalizer
Let the ice squeeze the pillow, not the pool wall.
The GLI 4' x 4' winter air pillow, part 500404AP, floats under an above ground winter cover and gives expanding ice somewhere to go, stocked under SKU PST-500404AP. As the surface freezes, the pillow compresses instead of the pool wall, and it crowns the cover so rain, snowmelt, and leaves shed toward the edges rather than pooling in the middle. Inflate it to roughly 60 to 80 percent, never to full capacity, so there is room left for the ice to push.

How much air should go in the pillow?
Fill it to about 60 to 80 percent. An overfilled pillow has nowhere to give when ice presses in.
What size pillow does my pool need?
Larger pools need a larger pillow or more than one. When in doubt, size up or use two pillows.
Do I have to tie the pillow down?
Yes, keep it centered so the pillow cannot drift to one side and leave the middle of the cover unsupported.

Let customers speak for us
All I can say is great customer service. Their products are good too
We had the older version and this dropped right in. Great buy!
I can’t wait for my mini Goldendoodle to be buzz for Halloween! It’s not bulky and small that it won’t bother him. He’s 32 lbs and I got the M/L
No issues with it. I received great customer service ensuring I chose the right thing and shipping was really fast.
Can not say enough about the Balboa retro fit system. I’m no expert, but I watched a you tube video and installed it myself. Hot tub is 14 years old and is up and running like new. Very pleased with my purchase. Thank you.
The process was smooth and lights arived as expected. Everything test out in good working order.
Needed to replace the control overlay on our Nordic Impulse hot tub, but could not find out the make or model number of the actual control panel on our tub. By taking measurements and photos or our actual control panel button positions and functions, I was able to narrow down the options. I ordered this overlay as the button positions seemed to be in the right positions, even though the overall size was smaller than the control panel. The overlay works, in that all buttons and functions are in the right place, and the overlay seems to have adhered well to the panel. It is not a perfect match, as it is smaller overall than it should be. But I am happy with the result and will buy an additional identical overlay as a backup in case this one, too, deteriorates at some point. Took a lot of detecting, but the result is successful!
This costume is legit. It has the sparkle, glittery sheen to it like the one used on screen! Very happy with it!!
Excellent service!
PST was great at communicating the status of my order throughout the various stages. I actually did encounter a shipment issue and they handled it without issue. I will be doing business again with them.

My wife has RA and is always uncomfortable. Our hot tub heater failed and all the local shops were not able to assist until November. I was able to order an exact replacement part which was delivered within 3 days the hot tub was up and functioning in three days. I was very impressed with the quality and service.
Good quality just ordered wrong size and also need thicker cover
Fit perfectly, and fast shipping
